Stayed for three very enjoyable nights recently and I just don't recognise the hotel described in a few of the comments below. The hotel is split between two buildings but each has its own reception and breakfast room so this isn't a problem and all the common areas I saw were in very good condition. The breakfast was excellent, including... More

On my 5th trip to Bergen, this time I tried out the Scandic City, a hotel split by a road, around 20 minutes walk from Bryggen, the old part of this wonderful city. Location wise, this is my favorite I have tried so far, yes it is a little walk from the old town, but if you are here over... More

Stayed for two nights and got a room in a side building across the street. It smelled cigarette smoke in the hallways, the curtain was ripped, the lighting was poor as one had to turn of the bed light at the entrance door. Although the room looked clean it smelled funny. Breakfast was good though

Service at arrival and departure was good. Reception staff was helpful with regards to pointing out attractions nearby. The hotel room itself was average, or slightly below. Clean room, but the interior design is quite old. The windows must be very old (poor isolation, and noise from outside is noticeable). In addition there is no way to control the heating,... More

One of the better Scandic hotels. In 3 different buildings and all different. They offer a gym in the huge gym across the street, which is excellent with an olympic size pool. Breakfast simple but good.

This was the last hotel of our trip. Scandic Bergen is located up a hill, about a 5-7minute walk from the main Bergen square. The Scandic chain of hotels are quite nice (similar to our Stockholm experience). This one has bigger rooms, a good breakfast spread & the efficient service of Scandinavia.
